gemini-viewer

gemini-viewer is a WebGL based JS SDK, it is built on top of three.js. It provides following viewers:

1. DxfViewer

Used to view 2d drawings and PDF. For dwg, we need to convert it to dxf first (there is a dwg2dxf.exe worker). It supports most common entity types, it supports OLE and region via dwg2dxf; It supports common line types; It supports common hatch styles; It support line width;

2. BimViewer

Used to view 3d BIM models. It supports formats including gltf, obj, fbx, ifc, dae, etc. Its features including measurement, section, display outline, orthographic camera, selection, etc.

3. VRViewer

Used to view panoramas. It supports viewing a panorama with 1 image, 6 images, or 24 images; It supports viewing a serials of panoramas; It supports hotpoints;

Installation

To install from npm:

npm install @pattern-x/gemini-viewer-threejs

Examples for DxfViewer

import { DxfViewer, DxfViewerConfig, ModelConfig } from "@pattern-x/gemini-viewer-threejs";

const viewerCfg: DxfViewerConfig = {
    containerId: "myCanvas",
    enableSpinner: true,
    enableLayoutBar: true,
};
const modelCfg: ModelConfig = {
    modelId: "id_0",
    name: "sample",
    src: "http://www.abc.com/sample.dxf",
}
const fontFiles = ["http://www.abc.com/hztxt.shx", "http://www.abc.com/simplex.shx"];

const viewer = new DxfViewer(viewerCfg);
await viewer.setFont(fontFiles);
await viewer.loadModelAsync(modelCfg, (event) => {
    const progress = (event.loaded * 100) / event.total;
    console.log(`${event.type}: ${progress}%`);
});
console.log("Loaded");
viewer.goToHomeView();

Features for DxfViewer

• DxfViewer features includes: load and view one or more dxf files, basic mouse/key operations, layouts, layers, distance/area/angle measurements with osnaps, markups, hotpoints, comparison, undo/redo for measurements/markups, zoom to selected area, screenshots, set background color, etc.

• Supported entity types includes: POINT, 3DFACE, ARC, ATTDEF, ATTRIB, CIRCLE, DIMENSION, MLEADER, MULTILEADER, ELLIPSE, HATCH, INSERT, LEADER, LINE, LWPOLYLINE, MTEXT, RAY, POLYLINE, SOLID, SPLINE, TEXT, VERTEX, VIEWPORT, XLINE, etc. IMAGE, OLE2FRAME, REGION are partially supported.

• Load and view dxf file

• Switch between layouts

• Distance measurement

• Area measurement

• Angle measurement

• Markups

DxfViewer limitations

• It doesn't support complex linetypes, e.g., linetype with text in it.
• It uses line geometries to represent texts rather than mesh, for a better performance.
• It doesn't support polyline with different start and end width.
• It doesn't support Tangent CAD, need to export to T3 format first.
• It supports dxf version "AutoCAD 2018", other versions are not well tested.
